Auto trans problem - ideas??

1987 5.0 with AOD. Driving along 4, maybe 5 miles in AOD. About this time, the trans seems to start to slip .... can't get over 45 or 50. Start to slow down, it almost lurches to a sudden stop. At 45 or so, the engine is taching about like it should, but the car just won't go. No visible leaks. Does it in 'D' as well, just seems to take a little longer. Park it for about 5 minutes - start it up - good to go for another few miles (have had to do this to get home). I imagine this would continue if I had to go farther.

Any ideas???
